This apartment in Riviera del Sol, near Málaga, offers a move-in ready living experience in an urban environment with amenities within walking distance. Featuring 2 bedrooms and 1 modernized bathroom, the property is ideal for those seeking comfort and convenience on the Costa del Sol. Its location combines proximity to the coast with urban accessibility, while communal facilities like the swimming pool contribute to a relaxed lifestyle.
Compared to nearby projects such as Aby Upper in Estepona (from €320,000), which offers a similar entry price, this apartment is situated in a more urban setting. Estepona, while also coastal, often has a slightly more residential and less directly urban character, depending on the specific location. Acqua Gardens in Estepona, with prices starting from €418,800, positions itself in a higher price bracket, possibly due to newer construction, more luxury amenities, or a more exclusive location. Alba Benalmádena (from €699,000) represents a significantly higher price range, indicating a different type of project, perhaps larger, with more exclusive facilities or a premium location. The Riviera del Sol location offers a balance between proximity to amenities and recreational opportunities, with a price that is competitive within the current market for renovated apartments in this segment on the Costa del Sol.
